“I owned a 1972 Plymouth Valiant that we bought for $125. It was infested with cockroaches and geckos – it was its own little ecosystem.”

The F.B.I. is about nuts and bolts. It’s all about witnesses and procedure and walking the streets.

You either die a hero or live long enough to become the villain.

It makes me feel good that I can now sit there and go, I’ve worked with Jack Nicholson, Al Pacino, all the great actors that I’ve worked with… Sir Ben Kingsley.

I have a dog and sometimes I’ll be the littlest kid with my dog and marvel at his ears and his nose and how he looks at me. If he died, I’d bawl like a baby.

Right now, I have to admit, that I’m more interested in giving people a little bit of hope and goodness.

Actors aren’t fighters. They don’t know how to throw a punch. So, there’s a lot of hitting in the face. I’d much rather fight with a stuntman than another actor. I don’t like fighting with other actors because somebody always ends up getting hurt.

I’m sort of fascinated by the whole espionage crime thing.

It seems to me if you want something badly enough, whether you’re a man or a woman, you’ll do whatever you have to do to get it.

If we’re talking about masculinity and tenderness, I don’t look at Clinton.

I like doing movies with kids in them, and you’re explaining things. They’re teaching you and you’re teaching them, and the audience can loop through that.

Yeah, I’d like to get the girl and at least make it through the film.

I don’t do comedy so much although I would like to do a comedy.

I always ask, why can’t I be just like Cary Grant or something.

I often feel that my days in New York City, that I was here for five years, didn’t get one job, went on a thousands of auditions and literally did not get a job on a soap, not a movie, not TV, not nothing, although I did do some commercials thank God.

If you go to YouTube and look up ‘grief’ you can find them and it’s just an unbelievable tool for an actor to be able to access, without being unethical. It’s like accessing the deepest, most painful parts of a person.

I think that maybe that’s my weakness, in that I don’t know how to do it, so I just do what I do and try to do it as passionately and as well as I can.
